Ack! What have they done to Ash?! Reader Dave in Mumbai explains:
At a little fair being held in my hotel's grounds there was an inflatable climbing post with the head of Ash from Pokemon on it. There were no other significant markings on it, but there he stood. Full of hot air, looking slightly more evil and considerably less cool than usual with swarms of children swarming all over his 'body' and no Pikachu to protect him... Decapitate, stuff and humiliate Ash. Seemed popular though and showed that Nintendo does seem to have some sort of presence over here, if only for ripping off their characters.
And cutting off their heads. And sticking those heads on poles. The horror.
